Confessions of a Super Mom

Cheat.

Not at everything but cheat in cooking here and there...voila! ~

I love holidays because you can be creative...especially with the help of blogs these days. For Halloween we celebrated at our Harvest Festival at church but the next day the game was on! We hosted our Bible Study group so Sweet little A and I went to town on some festive treats. Our friend Crystal came a little early and gave us a hand too! Thanks~

Here are some of our treats:

Hot Dog Mummies. Recipe. I didn't put the cheese inside.

Pumpkin Pops with paper spiral straws (cut in half) as sticks. Note for next time: Put more filling b/c the pie crust can be salty if the ratio isn't right. Recipe.

"Bone Appetit" everyone!!!~ On the very top you'll find oreo spiders made by Sweet Little A all by herself. We tried to make oreo pumpkin pops but the melted coat didn't come out perfectly so it's a project for next year.

So you're probably wondering how I cheated...You don't make
the dough, you appreciate the coupons and the pre-made packages of Pillsbury crescent and pie crust dough. You also appreciate friends who offer to help and  friends who make the pie fillings for your pumpkin pie pops. :9 Thanks Jenny!~

My picture that reveals all my dirty secrets. (And yes, the cookie cutters were washed. The stickers were so hard to get off. I'd rather keep them on than to push them into the dough with sticky yucky stuff.)

 

Hope everyone had a  

Happy Harvest-y Halloween!!!!!~
